I was wondering if anyone here has them for the original xbox. Is it worth it to splurge the 60-70$? What does it do?

If you have an lcd/plasma, i think it's worth it. Only if you're into clarity and beautiful pictures ;) bought mine on ebay for 40 bucks

Ebay has 3rd party ones for less.

There are a few 720p games with original Xbox that looks quite good with this cable but most game won't matter.

It also allows you to have digital sound (so you can hook it up to a receiver)... IMO that's the part that makes it great, some of the games have pretty decent sound effects.

I would stay away from the knock-off's as seen on ebay, some are ok, some are crap... kinda hard to tell.

Digital sound is the bomb. Surround sound adds a lot more to games in my opinion, then the switch from 480i to 480p does.

I think its worth it. I splurged for the Monster HD cables and I found that the games were more bright and crisp. And having DTS while playing was wicked:thumbsup:
